On July 19th, another Seligman gentleman visited us. While attending the Williams, Arizona Hamfest, Jeffrey drove the 45 minutes to see his name "Seligman" on signs all over town. An RF engineer/computer consultant and he is also a beta tester for Microsoft in Tucson, Jeffrey shared some of the details of his Bavarian heritage with us during his visit to our store.
As far as Jeffrey knows, he is the only Jeffry Seligman living in Arizona. He started the Radio Society of Tucson in 1993 and is now a P.H.D. candidate at The University of Arizona. Call sign is K2VNT
The local event "Seligman Days" was July 17th and 18th. Pictured here is our entry in the parade held on the 18th, Tow Later (1948 Ford Tow Truck ) hauling our 1955 Chevy Wagon.





Route 66 - 30 minutes west of Seligman

My friend Hilda took her adult children for a vacation at Grand Canyon Caverns. The thing they especially wanted to do was go horseback riding. I told them to be prepared for great riding over a large property with a forest and several 360 degree view mesa locations. Enough said, I thought. They are city folks and came back raving about their outing. They said I didn't explain how big 1,400 acres is with another million acres across the road (Route 66).
Hilda says it's important to know that you ride cross country, not in a dusty line on an overused horse trail. Birds and small animals are everywhere with occassional elk sightings, too. Our land has not been logged since 1940, so we have a beautiful forest to ride in with a huge variety of plant life. There's no removal of trees or plants on this "No Hunting" property so you really see nature at work undisturbed. There is great hunting nearby.
Hilda and I both agree the sunset ride is as close to the "Old West" as most of us will ever get. Our wonderful cowboy family matches each person to the right horse and joins in for safe and guided trips to unique corners of our Grand Canyon Cavernsworld. There are also half hour, hour, two hour and half day rides...We'll invent a ride that suits you...at a price city horse back rides have not seen in more than a decade.
Come saddle up with us ! - John McEnulty

This year there have been many visitors from The Czech Republic. We have proudly displayed the signed flag from these two happy travelers. Thanks!
Many visitors from Czech Republic are impressed by the fact that Arizona is 295,254 square kilometers (113,998 square miles) and Czech Republic is 79,000 square kilometers. Despite the fact that Arizona is four times the size of Czech Republic, the population of Czech Republic is 10.3 million and the population of Arizona is 6.5 million with one third of that population in the Phoenix metropolitan area. The population estimate of Seligman is 500 residents in town and about 1,000 total within a 25-mile radius.
